Best Spas in Rufforth

"As well as occupying what has to be one of the city's best locations, The Grand also offers tip-top service, a good choice of eating options, a spa and a pool. The colossus of a building was formerly the Edwardian headquarters of the wealthy North Eastern Railway Company and original features such as parquet flooring, hefty dark-wood doors and a sweeping stone staircase have been blended with a colour scheme of deep purple and charcoal greys plus swathes of velvet in chairs and sofas. Bedrooms are generous to a fault; even the entry-level Classics have space for a small party, and bathrooms feature baths as well as showers."

"The clue’s in the name: this sturdy Regency country house is an Eden for green fingers. It’s set among 300 acres (121ha) of woodland and glorious landscaped gardens. In spring, you’ll encounter blazes of azaleas and ruby rhododendrons – no wonder honey from Rudding Park’s bees is on the menu at the funky Horto Cafe."

"Hidden away at the edge of Woodhouse Moor, La Besi is a charming, family-run Italian eatery in Leeds, packed full of your favourite traditional dishes. Pizza and pasta is the order of the day, from Cannelloni to the Napoli pizza, but they have a fair selection of secondi piatti too, including Beef Stroganoff, Pollo Picante and Salmone Fillet. It’s unlicensed, so feel free to bring your own bottle of wine for a cheap alternative to the other Italians in the city."

"La Besi is the definition of cheap and cheerful Italian cuisine, a takeaway restaurant where the price truly defies the taste. It’s like getting home-cooked Italian food delivered to your door – pizza and pasta is what they do best, whether you’re ramming your fork into a cannelloni or grabbing a slice of the Al Capone, topped with ham, salami and pepperoni. Fancy something bigger?"

"Budget restaurants in Leeds don’t get much better than La Besi. If you’re looking for a substantial feed that’ll leave you stuffed with change to spare, it’s an excellent choice. This family style Italian eatery dishes up all your favourites like Canneloni, Italian Meatball Linguine and Lasagne, as well as a range of pizzas, all under £11."

"Because it’s less than 100 kilometers away, York is an excellent destination for a day trip from Manchester. The city was founded way back in Roman times, so it has a rich history and loads of things to see. The view from its impressive city walls will leave you speechless, and you certainly must see York Minster. Apart from those, there are plenty medieval monuments left from the age when the Normans ruled here."

"VII) Visit York and the surrounding moors (3-5 days) A long drive will take you to the northern part of England. You could stop at a pick-your-own farm on the way. Pick your own fruit (choose from strawberries, raspberries, pears, and apples) farms lends a typical English edge to this road trip."

"For a trip to York or Leeds, you would need just under four hours. With your car hire from Auto Europe there are no limits, only those which you set. Enjoy your holiday in the UK!"
